I went to see a taping of Letterman with Lona. The guest that night was Regis, then Joseph Arthur played a song. Incidentally I’d seen Joseph Arthur in Chicago way back when. I guess he’s famous now? Anyhow, I thought it was pretty funny and had a good time while Lona left underwhelmed. Dave’s warm-up before the show consisted of him talking about gum “do you like a good stick of gum?” which I was incredibly pleased to hear.

I’ve been bringing my lunch to work. I’ve considered starting a blog regarding this phenomenon, but decided it was too much work. Gino and I went on a rip of a roar last Monday and had fun, then we got up Tuesday and went to Ikea and had a miserable time. Kelly and I finished up a big project this week and felt we did a good job. Also on Monday—photographer Zoe Strauss came in to discuss the book we’re going to lay out for her. Everyone is excited about the project and we all talked for at least 2 hours.
